This cozy cabin has all the rustic charm you want in a beautiful New England getaway. Beds were comfy. 2 rooms downstairs and a big loft with 2 bunk beds and a double bed. Well equipped and the owners are very responsive. It was a great place for a long weekend away and we plan to return!

Barn by the creek
We loved our stay at the barn. Listening to the creek was so relaxing. Plenty of space for everyone to stretch out and relax. The barn was close enough to civilization to get things if we needed them. The owners were available and communicated well. All questions, comments and concerns were addressed immediately. We would totally stay here again.

Family and Friends getaway
The stay at the barn was fantastic. Very warm and cozy . For those who think staying in a restored barn was drafty , not at all , it's very well insulated and it was 31 degrees outside. The fire place was awesome with plenty of wood. Dave and Loretta were very accommodating and easily assessable . It's beautifully decorated with some antiques which we enjoyed . Highly recommend .

Wonderful
Love this unique remolded barn. Very well stocked with everything you could need. Nice host to deal with. Only thing was most all outlets had extensions cords everywhere so our CP machine would work. I would recommend this house any time.

Great stay!
Location was great. The converted barn served our needs well. We had 4 total that stayed there (my wife and I, and our 2 grown children) and there was plenty of room. (The loft area could have easily served 5 more people). Furniture was comfortable and dining seating was good. Recommended for stays in southern Vermont!

A Great Weekend Getaway
The Barn was wonderful. We experienced some FREEZING cold temperatures and were so relieved that the Barn wasn't drafty and in fact, was super cozy and being able to build a fire was a real treat. My only knock would be that there wasn't a driveway and being that close to the road was sometimes loud. Beyond that, the Barn was perfect and I would definitely recommend staying there again.
